Quotations
Happiness
Those with indomitable spirit are the real successes in life. If you can so train or condition your mind that you are content regardless of what you have or do not have, and if you can stand the challenge of all your trials and remain calm, that is true happiness.
-A Spiritual Leader "Paramahansa Yogananda"
Happiness is a perfume which you cannot pour on others without getting some on yourself.

-Aristotle
Strength is happiness. In weakness and cowardice there is no happiness.
-Daisaku Ikeda "Daisaku Ikeda"

-Peter Deunov
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.
-John Lennon
There is joy in work. There is no happiness except in the realization that we have accomplished something.
